Before you can use your phone as a modem:
• Acquire the appropriate data communications software for your computer.
• Subscribe to the appropriate network services from your service provider or internet
service provider.
• Install the appropriate drivers on your computer.
Select Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Modem.
To connect the phone to a compatible computer using infrared, press the scroll key. Make sure
the infrared ports of the phone and computer are directly facing each other with no obstacles
between them.
To connect your phone to a computer using Bluetooth wireless technology, initiate the
connection from the computer. To activate Bluetooth in your phone, select Menu >
Connectivity > Bluetooth > Bluetooth > On.
If you use a cable to connect your phone to a computer, initiate the connection from
the computer.
Note that you may not be able to use some of the other communication features when the
phone is used as a modem.
■ USB data cable
You can use the USB data cable to transfer data between the phone and a compatible PC.
You can also use the USB data cable with Nokia PC Suite.
Select Menu > Settings > Connectivity > USB. To select the default USB connection mode,
select USB mode and the desired mode. To have the device ask the purpose of the connection
each time the cable is connected, select Ask on connection > Yes.
To use the phone with Nokia PC Suite, select PC Suite. To synchronize media files, such as
music, with a compatible version of Windows Media Player, select Media player. To access
files on the inserted memory card as a removable drive, select Data transfer.
After transferring data, ensure that it is safe to unplug the USB data cable from the PC.
■ Data transfer
With data transfer you can copy or synchronize contacts, calendar entries, and possibly
other data, such as video clips and images, from a compatible phone using a Bluetooth or
infrared connection. When both Bluetooth and infrared are available on both devices, it is
preferable to use Bluetooth.
Depending on the other phone, synchronization may not be possible and data can be copied
only once.
